Oquendo in Prizefighter tourney

David Haye’s sparring partner Fres Oquendo will fight in Prizefighter International Heavyweights on Saturday 7 May at London’s Alexandra Palace – after the Hayemaker recommended him to promoter Eddie Hearn. “Adam made the call saying that David thought Fres deserved a shot at Prizefighter,” said Hearn. “Fres has been in with some of the biggest names in boxing and how can I turn down a request from our own Heavyweight champion!” Oquendo is coming off a split decision loss to Oliver McCall in December. Other named competitors are Michael Sprott, Kevin ‘Kingpin’ Johnson, Mike Perez and Konstantin Airich.
